million stock acquisition rights ('SARs') (valued at par) and 6,706,000 
ordinary shares (valued at a price of Yen 67 per share) with 90 SARs having 
been converted, following the initial conversion date of 21 December 2015 and 
2.598 million ordinary shares arising sold. The SARs can be exercised into 
shares of Prospect Co. at a price of Yen 54 per Prospect Co. share at any time 
prior to the expiration date of 20 December 2020 pursuant to the terms of the

statements, there would be an uplift of US$6,767,927.27 (31 December, 2016 
annual accounts: US$7,684,136) from the NAV based on retaining the SARs at cost 
for the same date, the exercise price remains unchanged."
